BASKET-STYLE CLIP CARRIER

摘要

A carrier (10) with both a bottom panel (14) and an upper panel (18) containing openings (26) through which the necks of packaged bottles (B) extend. The upper panel (18) is comprised of adjacent sections foldably connected to a central handle panel (22) and to an intermediate panel (16). The latter panel (16) also contains bottle openings and is foldably connected to a central vertical support panel (12). The arrangement permits loading by placing bottles (B) on the bottom panel (14) and pushing down on the handle panel (22), which causes the upper panel (18) sections to pivot down over the bottles (B). Support tabs (28) may surround the bottle openings (26) in the upper panel (18) to engage shoulders on the bottle necks.
